1989 Peugeot 309 GL 1600:
Summary: Blurb: Well it goes and stops. Obligatory grinding from CV joints when cornering, or stopping, or accelerating.
A fusion of rainwater and neglect have created a bouquet only peered with that of dog who's just gone for a dip in Burnley canal.
It's a speed dent - it makes the car go faster.
Note the rear view mirror in dash

Ratings:
Age (max 1) - now nearly 14 years old. But it's a sort of pensioner's car, it should have led a quiet life...
Decay (max 2) - Plenty. Scummiest seats I've ever sat on (to the point where seat covers would genuinely be an improvement)and what happened to teh headlining in teh back?
Impracticality (max 1) - Quite refined, quite roomy, good ride quality, but a bit thirsty.. But, it tries to redeem itself by being a bit picky about when to start.. And at least one door won't open
Toys (max 1) - Windows, mirrors, wide selection of Vauxhall wheel trims.
"Oomph" (max 1) - pretty quick, for a £20 shed. Oomph could more accurately be applied to the noise the brakes make though...
Deductions - A bit too new perhaps, compensated for by the seats and headlining. ANd no actual rust, which is plain spooky..
